WorkReady

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:52): Supplementary: did the minister make contact with the Premier when he was in China last week to discuss the changes to WorkReady funding?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:52): No, I made no contact with the Premier last week. I was already aware of the changes prior to his departure and had assured myself that students who were wishing to undertake VET, particularly in the context of completing their SACE, would be able to do so in a fully subsidised course that was designed to get them ready to work.
